You ever have one of those times where you don't want to sleep, but you're too tired to do anything interesting or especially worthwhile? I'm having one right now. This is what I get for crashing early, and waking up in the middle of the night... and then going to sleep for two hours, and then waking back up.

So, what I am doing is grooming kitties. This I can do without too much brain involved. They don't appreciate it while I am doing it, but they seem happy afterwards, at least.

Two down, five to go...

The vet increased Fearless' insulin dosage from 2.5 units to 3 units. He is definitely showing improvement, and hopefully this will be the last increase. I'm glad that he never seems to have hit a dosage that's too high. Hypoglycemia is scary. But I have the bottle of Karo Syrup standing by as an antidote if it is ever needed...

I am also cat-sitting two cats for one for my friends while he is vacationing. I've managed to get one of them to start taking her medicine (a particularly nasty-tasting <apparently> pill) when even the owner could not. Go me!

I'll tell you about it later, back to grooming for now...

I hardly ever have a time when I don't want to sleep. My problem is occasionally not being able to sleep. During those times I do miss having a pet though. Something very soothing about grooming animals.

Is the other cat on Amitriptyline? I think that was the one I tried with Muffin, except that it tasted so bad, he started throwing up when he knew it was pill time. And he always knew if it was mixed in with a treat and wouldn't eat it. I gave up after a couple of weeks. Glad Fearless is doing well.

I was suffering the same last night. Could not sleep until nearly 4 a.m. Not good. I'm sure the kitties did appreciate it. I don't think I've ever know a cat that didn't like to be groomed.

That sleep thing has been me pretty much for the past month...

I've become the master of pilling cats through work It's amazing how crafty they can be when they do NOT want a pill!
